How to store RTSP thread data on Ubuntu?

 To store RTSP stream data on Ubuntu, you can use FFMPEG, a powerful command-line tool for video and audio processing. Here are the steps to store RTSP thread data using FFMPEG on Ubuntu:

  1. Install FFMPEG: Open a terminal window and run the following command to install FFMPEG:
arduino
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
  1. Determine the RTSP URL: You will need to know the RTSP URL of the stream you want to capture. This may vary depending on the camera or source of the RTSP stream.

  2. Use FFMPEG to capture the stream: Once you have the RTSP URL, you can use FFMPEG to capture the stream and save it to a file. The following command will capture the stream and save it to a file called output.mp4:

php
ffmpeg -i rtsp://<username>:<password>@<ip_address>:<port>/<stream_path> -c copy -f mp4 output.mp4

Replace <username>, <password>, <ip_address>, <port>, and <stream_path> with the appropriate values for your RTSP stream.

The -c copy option tells FFMPEG to copy the video and audio streams without transcoding, which can save time and preserve the original quality. The -f mp4 option specifies the output format as MP4.

  1. Monitor the capture process: FFMPEG will output information about the capture process to the terminal window. You can monitor this information to ensure that the capture is progressing as expected.

  2. Stop the capture: To stop the capture process, press Ctrl+C in the terminal window where FFMPEG is running.

Once the capture is complete, you can find the output file (output.mp4) in the directory where you ran the FFMPEG command. You can also customize the command to suit your specific needs, such as changing the output format or bitrate. FFMPEG offers many options and features, so be sure to consult the documentation for more information.

Setup Janus Gateway on Ubuntu

 Setting up Janus WebRTC Server involves several steps, which I will outline below:

  1. Install the necessary dependencies:

    arduino
    sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install libmicrohttpd-dev libjansson-dev libssl-dev \ libsofia-sip-ua-dev libglib2.0-dev libopus-dev libogg-dev \ libcurl4-openssl-dev liblua5.3-dev libconfig-dev pkg-config gengetopt \ libtool automake gtk-doc-tools git cmake
  2. Clone the Janus Gateway repository:

    bash
    git clone https://github.com/meetecho/janus-gateway.git cd janus-gateway
  3. Build and install the Janus Gateway:

    bash
    sh autogen.sh ./configure --prefix=/opt/janus make sudo make install
  4. Create a configuration file for Janus Gateway:

    bash
    sudo mkdir /opt/janus/etc/janus sudo cp /opt/janus/share/janus/ /opt/janus/etc/janus sudo cp /opt/janus/etc/janus/janus.cfg.sample /opt/janus/etc/janus/janus.cfg
  5. Edit the janus.cfg configuration file to set up the necessary plugins and options for your use case. You can find detailed documentation on configuring the Janus Gateway in the official documentation.

  6. Start the Janus Gateway:

    bash
    /opt/janus/bin/janus
  7. Verify that the Janus Gateway is running by checking the logs or accessing the Janus Gateway demo page at http://localhost:8088/demos.html.

These are the basic steps to set up the Janus WebRTC Server on Ubuntu. However, depending on your use case and requirements, you may need to configure additional options and plugins. For more information, please refer to the official documentation.
